Daniel R. White Biography

Daniel R. White (born 1953, Atlanta, Georgia) is an American attorney and author. His first book, The Official Lawyer’s Handbook,, a satire of the legal profession, was a bestseller in the early 1980s. The success of the Handbook, which ranked #1 on The Washington Post best seller list and presumably drew on White's personal experience practicing law with the Washington, D.C., law firm of Hogan & Hartson, led to television appearances, speaking engagements, and other books, as a result of which The American Lawyer magazine declared White “The Official Lawyer’s Comedian.”
